Hello everyone who is curious enough to check out a new blog. My name is Becky and I am the owner of Snap and Scrap...a very cool scrapbook store. I bought the store in January and have been meaning to start a blog since my second week here. Not that I am a procrastinator, but new technology scares a person of my generation. Maureen has been bugging me about it for months, I keep reading in business magazines about how blogging is the way to keep in touch with your customers, my kids keep asking me when I'm going to start blogging so I finally bit the bullet and here I am! I'm not sure what exactly it is that I am supposed to be writing so I'll just pretend that you are my diary and I'll catch you up on what is going on at the Snap and Scrap.
Since we are a scrapbook store, of course we have tons of patterned paper, bazzill cardstock, stickers, embellishments, etc. We also have lots of cool layouts (mostly by Maureen) all around the store for folks to look at and get ideas from. I just love that! Some of us are not as creative as others and need a jumping-off point to get us started. We do all sorts of classes from beginners to advanced and everything in between.
Our latest endeavour is to open a coffeeshop inside the store. The coffeeshop is called The Saucer
and will open within the next two weeks. The Saucer is open to anyone, not just scrapbookers. McComb doesn't have a coffeeshop so there is no place for people to go for a good cup of coffee, cappuccino, latte, espresso, smoothies, etc. The Saucer will be open 8 - 5 on Mon-Wed and 8 - 9 Thurs - Saturday. What a great place to go to hang out with friends, have a cappuccino or mocha freeze with caramel and a piece of homemade pound cake, cheesecake or a brownie with ice cream. Mmmm, my mouth is watering just thinking about it. I hope Maureen and I don't gain 30 pounds working in here every day. Keep an eye out here for the anouncement of the grand opening, grab a friend and come on down.
Well, I guess I've said enough for my first blog so I'll go get busy painting chairs and tables for The Saucer. Till next time.....

Having had a sample of the frappuchinos I personally CANNOT wait for the opening! I am very excited about the new adventure. I'm going to have to WALK to the store from home to keep off the pounds!
